Waterloo Hunt Club hosts Waterloo Recreation Area Earth Day Cleanup

GRASS LAKE, MI – Members of the Waterloo Hunt Club and Grass Lake's 4H Farmer Commandoes woke up early Saturday morning to clean up the south end of the Waterloo State Recreation Area in Grass Lake.

The Waterloo Hunt Club has been sponsoring the Waterloo Recreation Area Earth Day Cleanup for 24 years as a way to give back to the community and clean up the area where they have their hunts in the winter.

“It’s the least we can do to make our hunt country pretty,” said Sally McAlinden, who has been one of the main organizers of the event for the past 3 years.

More than 90 participants from ages four to 89 showed up this year and managed to collect enough trash to fill up a 13 foot dumpster.
